Ok I’m not 100% certain these are all Deep Blade Shrimps or if there are different species here, but I’m still in lazy mode with regards to identifying stuff. But I like the variety of colors and patterns with these shrimp… Oh, and this also…
Yesterday I went back to a dive site I’ve visited a bunch of times in West Seattle with a good friend, Deana. As we were about to start our dive, a couple other divers asked us for some directions to a part of the site…
This first shrimp is called a Candy-stripe Shrimp and was the whole goal of a rather current-sensitive dive at Skyline – a popular dive site that I did not manage to visit last time I was here. I’m not a huge fan of current dives,…
These Red-gilled Nudibranchs (Himatina trophina) show up from to time on dives, and usually when they are around, there are tons of them. They’re pretty tiny, and are usually on pieces of seaweed that is drifting back and forth and makes them a little tricky…
I finally got around to getting this Lego Mini that Jason’s boys gifted to me in for his first dive today. Not the greatest photos, but I’m still learning how best to pose him – I also think I may have made him a bit…
These guys are somewhat common, but I still like their colorful little faces… especially those eyes!
OK – going to try switching things up a little bit and I’m going to try posting more recent photos for a while. Since I’m back in the Pacific Northwest, that means a bunch of critters from the chilly waters up here. I might mix…
A lot of the fish in the PNW waters have grumpy looking faces, but this guy takes the prize…
Pleurobranchs differ from Nudibranchs in that their gills tend to be on the right side of their bodies as opposed to towards the tail on their back. I’ve been able to find some Pleurobranchs both in Bali and in Florida, but I’m feeling lazy about…
A less common gallinule, I only got to see a couple of these Grey-headed Swamphens while in Florida…
I’m not even sure what kind of fish these are on, but I spotted these two separate cases of fish parasites while diving in the PNW during my first visit. The first one is a little tough to spot, but look for the small isopod…
A common denizen of the Blue Heron Bridge, I actually passed these guys up for photographs more often than not because of how difficult they are to frame in the shot because of those large gangly arms…
Just a couple long exposures with some star trails taken in Bryce Canyon NP…
Well, I’m getting this video finished up just in time to keep the schedule of sharing a video the first Sunday of each month… this round is another set of timelapse highlights from travels in Washington, California, and Utah. If you’re interested, check out some…
